What Is HIFU / Ultherapy Treatment?
Good day everyone, I am going to be resuming blogging and hope to publish articles regularly from now on! I will be focusing more on aesthetic topics and hope to enlighten you further about various areas of aesthetics as well as potential treatments.
For today’s topic, let us delve deeper into high intensity focused ultrasound, also known as HIFU or Ultherapy.
How It Works
High intensity focused ultrasound helps to trigger the production of collagen in your skin. Collagen is a key building block in connective tissue, and its presence is vital for your skin to repair itself. The Ulthera is a unique machine that uses ultrasound energy to increase the rate of collagen production in your skin, and is a form of non-invasive treatment to improve the condition of your skin.

Ultherapy is simply the term used to describe usage of the machine in order to restore and rejuvenate the aesthetics of your skin. Clinical studies have supported the use of the Ulthera machine to treat various skin conditions, concluding that this particular technique is safe and effective.
Utilising ultrasound technology, the energy penetrates the surface of your skin at just the right depth and temperature, without causing any damage to it. The skin then responds by increasing the rate of collagen production, which will help to restore the elasticity in your skin. The ultrasound technology also allows doctors to observe the layers of tissue, helping them to narrow in and highlight areas that require treatment the most.
You should be able to notice a difference after one session, but this may vary depending on your skin condition and case. However, the progression of results over the next 2-3 months will be much easier to see as the collagen will have had sufficient time to rejuvenate and restore the elasticity in your skin.

After Treatment
You do not need to worry; there is no downtime for Ultherapy treatment! You can resume your normal routine and activities immediately without any problems. There is no need for any special skincare regimens or treatment but it is advisable that you do maintain your skin’s health with products such as moisturiser, cleanser and other.
